    Very decent episode. Michael, as always, never learn and screws everything. This particular episode had one key funny moment and they kept talking about it in which didn't get more funnier. The ending was just meh for me.

    • Goofs
      Meredith climbs on a shelving unit, and it falls on her. She is seen under the fallen shelves, calling for help. About a minute later, Darrel finds the picture of Jan on his iPod. In the next shot, Meredith can clearly be seen standing at the left of the screen, near Roy's right shoulder. Then during the closing sequence, she is once again under the fallen shelves, calling for help.

      Michael Scott: Jan told me to play it cool and not tell anybody because it could get us both in trouble. So, officially, I did not see her.

      [smiles]

      Michael Scott: But I did see Jan there... in our room... at night... and in the morning.

      [tries not to smile]

      Michael Scott: And that's all I'm going to say.

      [pause]

      Michael Scott: Sex. Sex. We had sex. I had sex with her. I had sex with Jan.

      [smiles into camera]
